3-days tour: rafting, canyoning, tents

Description

Day 1

We will meet at 9:30 AM in Tbilisi and depart to the Borjomi region to raft on the first river of the tour – the Kura River.

This is an easy 8 km section in summer with a few rapids. The total program duration is around 2+ hours, with the rafting itself taking just over an hour.

After rafting, we organize a picnic at the base. Then, optional activities include relaxing at the base, visiting the Green Monastery or Borjomi, or organizing a horseback ride (from 70 GEL per participant).

Overnight stay in a guesthouse in the Borjomi area.

Day 2

Morning, we will have breakfast and transfer to the Racha-Lechkhumi region, traveling via Kutaisi (about 2 hours in the way from Borjomi). We stop in the city to explore, visit the viewpoint near the Bagrati temple, and then continue to the rafting base in Lechkhumi.

Then rafting on the Rioni River – a 22 km route lasting about 2–3 hours on the water. This rafting trip is more exciting and intense than on the first day.

Field dinner and overnight in a tent camp on the riverbank. (Optionally, dinner with a local family and overnight in a hotel or guesthouse can be arranged.)

Day 3

Breakfast, followed by light hiking to the Sairme Pillars and visiting various natural sites.

Alternatively, canyoning on the Shareula River – an easy canyoning route through a beautiful gorge, involving water crossings, rock jumps, and floating through gentle rapids. Duration: about 3–4 hours including travel.

(The cost of the canyoning is 150 GEL per participant)

After canyoning, we head back to Tbilisi, traveling along the upper road through Khvanchkara, Ambrolauri, Shaori Lake, and the Nakerala Pass with scenic viewpoints.

We stop for lunch along the way (not included in the tour price). Arrival in Tbilisi around 8-9 PM.
